Senior Accountant Automotive Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Extremely Robust and Dynamic" July 27, 2021 5.0 Everyone within the company has been extremely helpful and responsive. The different departments worked very well together to pass along information that had been given so that our company did not have to constantly repeat information for the integration. They answer our questions quickly and accurately and we have had essentially zero hiccups along the way. Pros This software has everything a business would need all in one place. Too many times do companies find themselves needing a handful of different software programs to organize their different departments. Striven takes all those major departments and stores it in one place, which makes it significantly easier to track, organize, and provide the information needed. Cons There are so many features it can be a bit intimidating to learn for a user who is used to much less. Alternatives considered [NetSuite](https://www.capterra.com/p/135757/NetSuite/) Reason for choosing Striven Timeliness, responsiveness, and most importantly, cost. Review Source AP Ashley P. Manager Consumer Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Far beyond our expectations" August 19, 2021 5.0 The staff have been wonderful to work with. They are very direct with there vision, feature capability, and direction of software. There support team have been very crucial in helping us get started with our migration. The overall software has been very well developed and functionality has already saved hours of time in our day to day operations. Pros I love the customization of this software. I can treat any report that narrows down exactly the info I need for invoicing, quoting, part management and more. In the few short months we have used it and very little training I have been able to navigate this system and save myself hours of unnecessary data entry. The ease of use and import has been a huge highlight to this software. They are constantly putting forth effort to make this software improved in function and reliability. Cons Consistency within features that do not go parallel through out the software. Some of the reports could have cross data to give a more comprehensive report however they said this maybe in a future feature release. Reports are still extremely powerful. Reason for choosing Striven It had the major components we needed with POS, Quotes, Invoices, Inventory management and customer portal. It was a easier solution to use and showed with the trial a reduction in time needed to perform basic functions within the software. Switched from [Total Office Manager](https://www.capterra.com/p/80729/Total-Office-Manager/) The performance in our previous solution was very unsteady. We were spending hours of time doing data entry and redoing work due to system failures. The software we came from was very feature driven which cause the performance to be very slow and unreliable.

The value blows anything else we have ever tried in the 30 years of being in the automotive industry and distribution. Pros Integration of an Accounting System, CRM, Customer Portal and electronic data filing system. Cons While they are consistently making marked improves ever couple of months to the user interface, there's still quirky things in various modules that aren't as intuitive as they could be.

Associate Product Manager / Events Coordinator Consumer Electronics Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "All In One System!! " February 16, 2023 5.0 Pros Striven allowed us to ditch the 3 tools we were using previously to manage CRM, invoicing, and inventory management. The consolidation of these 3 critical tools has streamlined our business. Cons Striven sends me a lot of emails with updates to our business that I'm already aware of. For example, I just sent an email to a customer through our support email, striven will send an email to my personal email telling me that a CRM conversation has been updated. This is by no means the end of the World and sometimes it's nice to have these updates. Review Source Sarfaraz K. SEO Manager E-Learning Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Revolutionizing Project Management with Striven" January 26, 2023 4.0 My overall experience with Striven has been mixed.

Talent Acquisition Consultant Human Resources Used the software for: 1-2 years ### " Ideal system" December 28, 2022 5.0 Pros We explored a variety of ERP packages and the possibility of creating our own when assessing our business needs. We found Striven to be an ideal system that could evolve along with our company. I personally enjoy using the report builder to measure data, as well as the accessibility of the software and its capacity to create tasks quickly. This makes it easier for our company to stay organized and efficient with our internal communications. Cons Honestly, I don't dislike much about Striven. It's very user-friendly and I'm able to find what I need quickly. I was able to come up with a solution, but it would be great if there was an option to age from either starting point.

Their customer support team has real people responding to your questions and they have great response time and are always happy to help! Pros I like the report builder best because you can configure and pull your own reports on just about anything in the system! It makes tracking metrics on my data entry so easy. Cons I like the timesheet feature but I wish there was a feature where you can copy a past timesheet into draft form for your current week and then edit the hours. I often work in the same item categories and it would save time completing this necessary but sometimes time consuming task. Review Source PG Precila G.

We wanted to find a feature-rich software that wasn't Quickbooks. Striven has a great overall interface. The system allows for a good amount of customization.
